From the van route to every principal claim recovered.

This is the core scope — we shape it to how your business already works.
FMCG Distribution
The problems we solve

What fmcg distribution teams struggle with today.

Vans work where there is no signal

The challenge today

Receipts are written by hand and re-keyed in the evening, invoice numbers jump, and shops with suspended credit still get sold to.

How it's designed to work

Sells and prints invoices from the phone offline, continues numbering from the van's own series, syncs automatically, never double-bills on resend, and sends conflicts to the supervisor instead of losing them.

Van

The evening van settlement never balances

The challenge today

Goods and cash are counted on paper and nobody owns the difference.

How it's designed to work

One settlement screen: returned stock by lot, cash, QR and cheques against what is due. Differences within tolerance can be written off; beyond it a supervisor must approve.

Settle — prototype screen, sample data

Expired stock in the warehouse and on vans

The challenge today

Picking follows shelf position, old stock lingers, and chains reject goods with too little shelf life.

How it's designed to work

Picks by expiry date (FEFO) in warehouse and van, blocks lots below each chain's minimum shelf life, and flags near-expiry stock nightly.

Expiry — prototype screen, sample data
Expiry

Principal-funded promotions not fully recovered

The challenge today

Thousands of invoices are gathered in spreadsheets each month; some lines are claimed twice, some forgotten.

How it's designed to work

Records the principal's share on every promoted invoice, builds a claim from unclaimed lines in one click, allows each line to be claimed only once, and tracks per-line approval and claim age.

Claims

Chains deduct money with no trail

The challenge today

Payments arrive short, the reason is unknown, and disputes come too late.

How it's designed to work

Receives the net payment, opens every deduction and matches it to the chain agreement: matches become expense, mismatches are disputed with evidence.

Deductions — prototype screen, sample data
Deductions

Shop credit out of control

The challenge today

Reps take orders over the limit, and goods keep shipping after a cheque bounces.

How it's designed to work

Checks the credit limit and overdue debt on every order, holds excess orders for approval, and suspends credit immediately when a cheque bounces.

What makes it different

Designed around how fmcg distribution really runs.

The van is a mobile warehouse

Each van is designed as its own warehouse: load request, approval, transfer, sell, return and settle within one day.

Sell first, sync later

Offline-first phones designed to enforce key rules on the device, such as discount ceilings and van stock. An invoice already printed always stands.

Principal money comes back in full

Designed to combine promotions, free goods, price support, damaged and expired goods and display fees into one claim per principal per period, with evidence.

Shelf life as a rule, not a memory

Designed with FEFO on every pick, a minimum remaining shelf life per chain, and expired lots blocked in warehouses and on vans.

Modern trade, money included

Designed to import chain purchase orders from portal files, book distribution center delivery slots, match chain goods receipts, and check every deduction.

Many principals in one system

Designed to show margin after trade spend by principal, channel and route.
